- the term “comprising” may in an embodiment refer to “consisting of but may in another embodiment also refer to "containing at least the defined species and optionally one or more other species”.
- the terms first, second, third and the like in the description and in the claims are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances and that the embodiments of the invention described herein are capable of operation in other sequences than described or illustrated herein.
- the invention further pertains to a method or process comprising one or more of the characterising features described in the description and/or shown in the attached drawings.
- the various aspects discussed in this patent can be combined in order to provide additional advantages. Further, the person skilled in the art will understand that embodiments can be combined, and that also more than two embodiments can be combined. Furthermore, some of the features can form the basis for one or more divisional applications.
- the invention further provides a kit of parts comprising the fibrous reinforcing material and the healing agent.
- a kit of parts comprising the fibrous reinforcing material and the healing agent.
- the kit of parts may be extended with cement starting materials (not including water).
- a kit of parts may be provided comprising (i) one or more of the fibrous reinforcing material and the healing agent, optionally provided in separate containers, though optionally they may, when provided both, also be provided in a single container, and (ii) cement starting materials (not including water).
- the invention also provides a mixture comprising (i) one or more of the fibrous reinforcing material and (ii) the healing agent and cement starting materials (not including water). When all components are combined including water, again the cementitious material as described herein may be provided.
- a cementitious mixture was made based on conventional cement starting materials. Bacterial material was added, and also PLA polymeric material and a calcium source. It was found that the mortar element (particulates ⁇ 4 mm), made from the cementitious mixture had improved properties (especially liquid tightness) and the bacterial material use the degraded polymeric material, facilitating formation of crack filling calcium carbonate. Regain of liquid tightness was indicated by reduced water permeation in time by aqueous submersion of the cementitious element. Bacterial aerobic conversion of degraded polymer was indicated by oxygen consumption in an alkaline surrounding. Mineral deposition on degrading polymer and crack surfaces showed facilitation of calcium carbonate formation and crack blockage.
- results show that bacterial oxygen respiration (oxygen consumption) on certain polymer fibres is high (relatively fast oxygen decrease in time), e.g. Fibre type S16cont PVA/alg (polyvinyl alcohol / alginate-based fibre comprising an alginate coated PVA back-bone), Fibre type S15cont PVA/alg (polyvinyl alcohol / alginate-based fibre), S14cont APIPLA (polylactic acid-based fibre), type S13cont APIPLA (polylactic acid- based fibre). Results also show that bacterial oxygen respiration (oxygen consumption) on other types of polymer fibres is intermediate (slow oxygen decrease in time), e.g. Fibre S7-Ingeo, and Sl l-SC. These fibres basically are biodegradable. Apparently however they may are used to a lesser extend as a substrate for the bacterial material in the cementitious material.
- an image was made of cracked concrete specimen, fortified with seaweed-derived protein polymer based fibres, image taken after 28 days submersion in water without added bacteria.
- Fibrous reinforcing material comprising a 10 40 30 15 biodegradable polymer (kg)
- the healing agent comprising the bacteria and a building material (not shown in the table)
- the healing agent may comprise organic compounds and/or bacteria-loaded porous particles.
- the healing agent may be added, wherein especially the amount of one or more of the binders (cement, blast-furnace slag, fly ash) and the sand are reduced. Best results have been obtained by adding a total of in the range of 0.2 - 10 kg healing agent to a mixture comprising 100 kg as the sum of cement, blast-furnace slag, fly ash, limestone powder and sand.
- the maximum particle size (provided by sieving) in Mix 2 and 3 is 500 ⁇ corresponding to the maximum particle size of the sand.
- the maximum particle size is 150 ⁇ , corresponding with the maximum particle size of the cement and the limestone powder.
- the maximum particle size in Mix 4 is 200 ⁇ corresponding to the fly ash.
- the maximum particle size may however increase.
- porous particles having a maximim particle size of 1000 ⁇ for instance increases the maximum particle size in the mixture also to 1000 ⁇ .
- the fibres of the fibrous reinforcing material have a diameter of 39 ⁇ and a length of 8 mm. Especially the aspect ratio (length / diameter) may be selected from the range of 30 - 250.
- the fibres were purpose-manufactured with a tensile strength (1620 MP a), elastic modulus (42.8 GPa), and a maximum elongation (6.0%) matching those needed for strain-hardening performance, and coated with a proprietary oiling agent 1.2% by mass.
- the fibre length over the agregate size may be especially selelected in the range of 1 - 100, more especially in the range of 2 - 10.
- the fibre volume may especially be selected from the range of 0.1 - 5 % of the cementitious material.
- a total of in the range of 0.2 - 10 kg healing agent may be added to such mixture comprising 100 kg as the sum of cement, blast-furnace slag, fly ash, limestone powder and sand.
